I need advice to avoid crashes with mods.

someidiot777 · October 29, 2012

Hey guys and gals, I need help figuring out some stuff for some programs and my mod list to avoid crashes.

I have installed all my mods with Fallout Mod Manager and doing the following steps:

1. Manual download the Mod

2. Open FOMM, then Package Manager, and then Add FOMod.

3. Activate the mod.

That seem easy enough, but if I did anything wrong please advise.

I have been using the FNVEdit just to check if everything is in order. I don't really know what to do with it except to make merged patches by:

1. Waiting for it to finish loading the list

2. Right click anywhere on the left panel

3. Then select "Create Merged Patch

I have also the NVSE in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\fallout new vegas.

I a bit trouble on how the FNV 4gb NVSE works.

It saids just to use the fnv4gb application to work, but does it include the nvse automatically?

I have started to use the New Vegas Configator to help the computer but I wish to launch it with the fnv4gb application so I have link it like so: C:\Users\Shadowfox\Desktop\FNV 4gb NVSE\fnv4gb.exe

I just making sure if the settings of New Vegas Configator will run with fnv4gb.

Lastly I using Wrye Flash which a lot of the features puzzle me.

Some of the mods have a red shade over their text. The Wrye Bash help file doesn't mention red on the text, just red boxes. I don't know if that is good or bad. Please advise on that.

I also don't know too much about the bash tags. The "Bash Tag suggestion(s)" tells me to put a certain mod with more bash tags? Like to add what it suggest to the bottom right where it says "Bash Tags"

After doing that to all the mods that it suggest, the steps are to: ?

1. Run Boss

2. Crtl + A the mods and select "Mark Merge-able"

3. Select the "Bashed Patch" and then "Rebuild Patch"

Some say it incompatible with other mods, such as

FlashlightNVSE.esp Active
